Almighty Game Designer Chapter 30: Special promotion techniques


   Early the next morning, the experience store opened.

   Not long after opening the door, Jia Peng brought a few boys over.

   "Morning, the manager, is the game going online today?" Jia Peng asked.

  Chen Mo nodded: "Yeah, why did you come so early today?"

   Jia Peng said: "Isn't this "Plants vs. Zombies" going online? A few of us happen to be out of class today. Come and cheer for the manager."

   Chen Mo said: "Okay, welcome. Come on, sit down. How many levels have you played in endless mode?"

   Jia Peng said: "84 is off. Manager, is endless mode really endless? Unlimited?"

  Chen Moyile: "It's only 84 levels? Let me tell you that, this game's endless mode is just starting to play 100 levels."

   Jia Peng said speechlessly: "Nima, is there such a pervert? I have reached level 84 and it feels difficult to move, and it will be difficult to move forward one level."

   The remaining boys also nodded: "Yes, the 100 level has just begun? The store manager, did you talk about the same game as us?"

   Chen Mo smiled and said nothing.

  Three or four days have passed, and Jia Peng and the others are considered the first players, and they have basically passed the adventure mode. Originally, the adventure mode was not particularly difficult. Chen Mo designed the same difficulty as his previous life. As long as he is a player of normal intelligence, he can pass the game for a period of time.

   Originally, Wen Lingwei and Jia Peng thought that they would be gone after the level was cleared. After all, this is a puzzle game. After three or four days of playing so fascinatingly, the content of this game is already very rich, far better than normal. Puzzle games are much richer.

   As a result, they found that this game also has an endless mode!

This play of    is equivalent to opening the door to a new world. The difficulty of endless mode continues to increase. Originally, these people thought they had already figured out the game, but when the endless mode came out, they realized To my naivety.

   On the current ranking, the highest record is Wen Lingwei's 93 rounds. The others are basically hovering between 60 and 80 rounds, and a clear feeling is despair!

   In the adventure mode, these people have some self-proclaimed powerful routines, but in the endless mode, their self-recognized strong routines are ruthlessly crushed, and it feels like they are playing a new game.

   Therefore, these people often come to Chen Mo's experience store to play, not only for the exchange of experience, but also for some cutting-edge skills from Chen Mo, and a lot of rankings on the rankings.

   Jia Peng and a few boys skillfully turn on the phone, open Plants vs. Zombies, log in to the game account, and continue to challenge the endless mode.

   "Manager, when is your game going to go live?" Jia Peng asked.

   Chen Mo said: "Let’s go at 12 o'clock."

   Jia Peng nodded: "Okay, then we will download it as soon as possible and give you a five-star."

  For a new game, it doesn’t really matter what time it goes online, but it’s usually selected to go online on the hour, so it’s easier to record various data.

   The 24-hour data after the launch of the new game is more important, mainly the number of downloads and ratings, these two will be directly related to subsequent application store recommendations.

  When emperor Huyu and Zenyi Huyu launch new games, they often carry out long-term promotion in advance, and a large number of players will be influx on the day of launch, undoubtedly occupying the new tour list.

   Chen Mo doesn't have so much money to do promotion, but he has his own way.

   At 10 o’clock, Chen Mo had already launched "" on the app store first, and the built-in ad inside was linked to the promotional image of "Plants vs. Zombies", and the player will automatically jump to the app store after clicking Download page of "Plants vs. Zombies" in.

   How many players does "" currently have? Chen Mo himself doesn't know it, but it's definitely not less. A large part of it is casual players, and the effect of promoting "Plants vs. Zombies" must be very good.

  Chen Mo doesn’t expect "" to make money for the time being. It's completely free to download, just to earn a rant. The more people download, the better, and strive to convert all these people into "Plants vs. Zombies" players.

   Besides, Chen Mo is also thinking about some game media.

   It stands to reason that he is only a D-level designer, and launching a new game will not attract too much attention.

   These game media have resources in their hands, but who will give you an unknown new designer?

   However, Chen Mo has titles and topics!

  He is the champion of the design competition. He had a fight with Schwartz a while ago. These game media all know about it.

   Chen Mo posted a Weibo.

  " "" has been on the app store, and is completely open for free download (forever free). The new game "Plants vs. Zombies" will be released at 12 o'clock, both PC and mobile phones, please witness together, can the first month sales reach 100,000 ."

  @史华哲, @游戏资讯网, @天空网, @微讯游戏 Channel, @恒游网游戏 Channel......

  Chen Mo sighed @了十来家游戏Media. This Weibo also posted a propaganda image, directly using the loading of "Plants vs. Zombies", which is the image of plants on the left and zombies on the right.

   ten minutes later, these game media exploded!

   The media operators responsible for managing the official Weibo were all bombed out, and they smelled big news.

  "Chen Mo? Isn't this the winner of the design competition? The producer of ""?"

  "His new game is about to be released? It's only more than three months! It's too fast, let us witness it together? He really thinks his game sales can exceed 100,000 in the first month?"

  "The development period of more than three months is too short, but it also includes the time for testing and adjustment! Is it a small game like ""?"

   "It's impossible to replicate a game like ""~ IndoMTL.com~ If he does a similar game, he will be dead."

  "The name is "Plants vs. Zombies", it seems that the game content should be relatively rich, but it is still a casual game."

   "At that time, Shi Huazhe asserted that the sales of Chen Mo's first game could not exceed 100,000 in the first month. This Chen Mo wants everyone to witness it. It's really awesome, I'm not afraid to play it off?"

  "Hurry up and forward! Track and record various data after the launch of "Plants vs. Zombies"!"

   These game media all smelled the big news and forwarded Chen Mo's Weibo one by one.

  Of course they know what Chen Mo wants to do. They just want to catch up on the popularity and promote their new games for free!

   However, this belongs to Zhou Yu's fight against Huang Gai. One is willing to fight and the other is willing to suffer. The game media also needs this kind of hot topic to make things happen!

   Moreover, even if these game media are not hyped, the popularity of this topic will naturally be hyped just by the natural fermentation of Weibo.

   With the reposting of these game media, more and more players have also learned about this news.

  Chen Mo’s first real game "Plants vs. Zombies" is about to go on the app store!

   Many people are watching, but the poster still aroused the interest of many people.

   The cartoonish plants and zombies, their unique style quickly impressed the players' minds. Many people are already looking forward to it. How do plants fight zombies?

   And those game media are more concerned about the data of "Plants vs. Zombies", especially the first month sales.

   If the first month's sales are 100,000 copies, and each is sold for 10 yuan, there will be a turnover of 1 million, which is estimated to be around 500,000. This is already quite remarkable.
